What is the total kinetic energy of the atoms and molecules in an object called?
Temperature is the measure of average kinetic energy of all the atoms and molecules in an object
Why do Atoms and molecules have kinetic Energy?
Because they: * Have mass * Have a speed
What is the movement of atoms molecules waves and electrons?
kinetic energy
What type of kinetic energy involves the movement of molecules and atoms?
Heat energy
What common form of energy arises from the kinetic energy of atoms and molecules?
Heat.
When matter is warmed does kinetic energy increase or decrease?
It increases. Heat is the kinetic energy of vibrating atoms/molecules.
The movements of atoms and molecules waves and electrons is?
Kinetic energy
Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of what?
Of particles, such as atoms or molecules.
What happens to a sample of matter when its particles lose kinetic energy?
A loss of kinetic energy in the atoms or molecules of a sample of matter will result in the cooling of the sample. That sample will get colder as remove thermal energy from it. The atoms/molecules of a substance have kinetic energy associated with them. This kinetic energy is the result of atomic and/or molecular motion. As a sample of matter cools, the atoms and/or molecules will lose mobility. Loss of mobility and vibrational energy, which are forms of kinetic energy, will become apparent when thermal energy is removed from the sample.
Scientists classify everything in the universe as either A light energy or heat energy B potential or kinetic C atoms or molecules D matter or energy?
atoms or molecules
What type of energy is involved when there is a change in temperature?
Thermal (heat) energy - which is the kinetic energy of atoms/molecules.
Energy of atoms and molecules in an object due to their motion is what type of energy?
That is called heat energy.
